Can we get PS4 trophies list?

Hello,

Seems PS4 release is coming fast and was wondering if we can get a trophy list.
Before anyone will say to check list on steam or X1 please know that Sony has a limit on points you can get from single game and 100+ or even 80 (like on X1) trophies will not be possible (unless all trophies are bronze?!?).

I am preparing now on PC for PS4 release but platinum is something I always try to achieve so it would be nice to know before release.

Thanks.

There's 82 achievements on Xbox. Only standard 1000 gamerscore, they have never added new achievements with updates.

don't you think new Betrayal changes to Masters will affect trophies/achievements?
To answer the original question, the XBox Achievement list can be found here:

https://www.xboxachievements.com/game/path-of-exile/achievements/

PS4 will likely retain those exact same achievements, albeit with the possible addition of a Platinum trophy (that isn't mandated by Sony, and games aren't forced to have one though most usually do).

Good to know, thanks, but that doesn't mean that they won't ever add more. The XBox version is only a year old: maybe in the future there will be a large enough amount of added content to warrant a "trophy pack" (see below).

This is true, but it's not as limited as you make it sound.

Games developers do have the capability to add/remove/adjust trophies, their values and requirements through patches. You're correct that singular "games" are limited in the amount of "gamerscore" they can award, though this can and usually is circumvented by "trophy packs".

A "trophy pack" is a sub-collection of trophies usually related to DLC. They also have limits on the amount of "gamerscore" they can award (less than a standard game, but seperate and additional to the standard game and other "trophy packs"), however there is no limit to the amount of sub-collections that can exist. Game developers usually install these "trophy packs" along with their regular game patches as advertisement, as well as further incentivize you to purchase missing pieces of DLC (if you don't buy the DLC you'll have trophies listed under the game that you cannot unlock, though these don't interfere with the ability to gain the Platinum trophy).

In the case of Path of Exile, these "trophy packs" could be released anually, or bi-anually, and be listed under a recently released league title. For example, had there been a trophy pack released just before Christmas it could have been called "Path of Exile: Betrayal Trophy Pack", and contained achievements for any content released since the base version, upto and including Betrayal content. The only caveat is that GGG probably wouldn't have trophies for temporary content or content which is likely to be removed/massively changed in the near future.

GGG haven't yet done anything like that yet, and there's no guarantee they ever will, but it's definitely an avenue they could choose to go down if they wanted to in the future.

That's a thorny issue, and it could explain why GGG haven't tweaked the achievement list since launch.

It's bad form for a game to have achievements which can't possibly be obtained.

While it's true that this inevitably happens in games for one reason or another, since POE contains a lot of temporary content (Leagues), and "permanent" content isn't immune to being massively tweaked or even removed (the old Masters for example), Path of Exile *could* possibly be too unstable (in terms of content being reliably present and unchanged) to properly take advantage of achievements without achievements constantly becoming obsolete and impossible to obtain.

GGG can't just erase the obsolete achievements, because then the players who got those achievements would be angry that their previous efforts are devalued. I'm not even sure that it's possible to delete achievements, though it's certainly possible to change the unlock conditions of an achievement - but again that risks upsetting players by devaluing the efforts of those who unlocked the achievements normally.
